This car is bad ass and turns some serious heads. It has a new battery, Fuel tank, brake lines, brake pads, wheel cylinders, light bulbs, wheel adapters and starter. Newer ball joints, shocks and all new steering components. It has 20" wheels with brand new tires (20 miles). Rear Gabriel Air shocks. I just repainted it in Valspar satin black and I am in the process of slowly assembling this back together. It had no rust on it. The motor runs perfect with its 462 Lincoln/Edsel motor that has 85k on it. This motor was made for 2 years and runs really good. Runs really smooth. I pulled the transmission out just to inspect it to find out it was already rebuilt. While it was out I replaced the front pump seals and front pump bushing as it had a small leak. No More leaks. Shifts nice and smooth. After 1966 the DOT required all cars to be equipped with a dual reservoir master brake cylinder so while going through the brakes I upgraded it to a new dual reservoir MC. It has new plugs, wires cap and rotor. All chrome is in great shape except two top trim pieces. I have not put them on yet. I may use 3m flexible chrome and let the new owner send it out for repair. I have all new clips to put in on when its repaired. The interior is in original conditions and in pretty good shape. It is kind of a goldish, green but I left it original for someone else to change if they want. I like the old look inside. Putting in a fully blue tooth run stereo system so I can leave the original radio in and keep everything wireless. It has all the components for the AC but it is not charged and the belt is off..............These cars are EXTREMELY expensive to restore and they were leaps and bounds ahead of all competition in the day with technology and when done nice they sell through classic car distributers from 25-30k. I wanted this to look cool instead of like an old man car but it is a matching numbers car for a collector who may want fully restore it.. I have about 15k into this car already. Come get it before my wife refuses to let me sell it.(Bet you never heard that before)  This will be going to Street side classics and sold for a premium on the international market in the next two weeks. Please inquire if you are serious and test rides will be given to people with cash in hand. Clear NC title Will accept all reasonable offers.

LA Auto Show recap

1955 Lincoln Indianapolis concept up for auction

Sat, 21 Sep 2013


Lincoln was never a brand known for making sports cars. In fact it hasn't offered anything with less than four doors since the demise of the Mark VIII, and that was hardly what you'd call "performance oriented". But that doesn't mean that Ford's luxury marque never toyed with the idea.
In 1955 Ford delivered a Lincoln chassis (along with a 200-horsepower V8 engine and four-speed automatic transmission) to Carrozzeria Boano, an Italian coachbuilder that had just branched off from Ghia the year before. The resulting orange coupe you see here was named after Indianapolis and was unveiled at the Turin Motor Show. And while its detailing may have been divisive, the overall shape certainly caught the eye.
